KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 2 (Bernama) -- The Malaysia Convention & Exhibition Bureau (MyCEB) proudly presents the Spice Market Networking Dinner @ Global Travel Meet 2025, organized by Tourism Malaysia, taking place at the Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre (MITEC) on 2 October 2025. This exclusive dinner will welcome international buyers and representatives from across the globe, offering an experience that celebrates Malaysia’s heritage while building meaningful global connections.
 
With the theme “Malaysia – Where the World Meets”, the event highlights Malaysia’s unique role as a cultural crossroads and a premier destination for Business Events. Just as the country has long been a meeting point for diverse peoples and traditions, the dinner embodies Malaysia’s ambition to bring the global community together under one roof.
 
A Journey Through Heritage
Guests will be transported back 600 years to the Malacca Sultanate, where the vibrancy of a traditional spice market comes to life. Arab, Chinese, and Indian traders weaving through the marketplace will capture the sights, sounds, and spirit of Malaysia’s history as a hub of trade, culture, and innovation.
 
“This event is more than just a dinner. It is an invitation to experience Malaysia’s story. By bringing together our history, culture, and hospitality, we are creating moments that linger in the heart while opening doors to global connections,” said YB Sivakumar A/L Varatharaju Naidu, Chairman of MyCEB.
